I see what you mean there. That makes sense.

I would think that clearing a digital signature field would be more of a common request than replacing a button though. That's just me I guess...

For example in the values section the keys are: /AP /P /FT /MK /F /T /Subtype /V /Type /Rect I would think it would be a problem, but again as I stated in the other thread, that's the only code I've found that has anything to do with what I'm trying to accomplish. I think it was Paulo who actually suggested deleting the /V and /AP values from the field in the thread I reference before. -- View this message in context: http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/About-this-mailing-list-tp2968159p2968303.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
